Product Description:

The 4PP220.1043 is an operator interface produced by B&R Automation and belongs to the 4PP Power Panels series. It integrates visualization, soft control, and communication capabilities in a single front-mountable housing for machine-level automation tasks. The panel combines a TFT display, a resistive touchscreen, and embedded PC hardware, so it can host visualization runtime environments, manage recipe data, and forward field information to higher-level controllers.

Its front panel carries a 10.4 in TFT display with a native resolution of 640 × 480 pixels and a luminance of 350 cd/m², providing clear images for status and parameter pages. The screen supports analog resistive touch input, so gloved hands or a stylus can be detected without recalibration. A sealed bezel rated IP65 shields the display and keys from dust and low-pressure water jets when the unit is panel-mounted. Two USB host ports allow local data logging or keyboard attachment, while the Type I CompactFlash slot provides removable storage. Networking to controllers or SCADA nodes is handled through an integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port, and legacy equipment can connect through the RS-232 interface at serial rates up to 115 kBaud.

Computation is supplied by a Geode SC2200 266 MHz 32-bit x86 processor that accesses 64 MB of DRAM for program variables and buffers, 256 KB of battery-backed SRAM for retentive data, and 2 MB of onboard flash memory; an additional 4 MB of shared graphics memory supports hardware rendering. The panel operates from a 24 VDC ±25% supply and draws up to 22 W maximum under full backlight and communication load, making it compatible with common 24-volt control cabinets. The available memory supports visualization tasks, retentive data handling, and local graphics processing on the interface.
